A hauntingly beautiful evocation of lost love, Noctunes for the King of Naples has all the startling, almost embarrassing, intimacy of a stranger's love letters. The intense emotional situation envelops the readers from the first page; like all images in a dream, White's characters are the most real people we know, thought they remain phantoms. Each chapter, each nocturne, is set in a different emotional key, but all are interconnected through such subtle modulations that the final effect is devastating.

Did you get that? Neither did I. And this is just page two. It keeps getting … deeper? baroque? I fail to find a description.
Anyway, this is not for me. I don’t mind angst… when it comes with a plot. And I actually enjoy poetic writing… when the sentences make sense.
Life is too short. There are too many books out there to be read. This one is heading to the recycle bin.
